Witnessing death was something that came surprisingly easy for me. I didn’t scream, I didn’t become sick, I was oddly settled. When my father pulled over to the side of the road and assisted a man who was a victim of a hit and run, instead of cowering into my mother’s arms, I jumped out of the car as well, and listened to the orders that my father shouted to me. As I assisted in rendering aid, I noticed that despite the bone protruding out of the man’s body, the bruises blanketing his body, and the dangerously large amounts of blood that he was exsanguinating, sudden realization of the situation entered into my mind. This was not an episode of Grey’s Anatomy, this was real.…
It was eight o’clock and the park was on lock. From the top of Washington Park to the bottom, Posters with R.I.P. Jay had been posted on every telegram pole. Three massive barbecue grills were smoking and had the whole park smelling like hardwood hickory smoke blended with weed. Thomasina, her brother David, and Larry, were doing the grilling. The deejay had a compilation of hip-hop songs from every era.…
Later my dad entered my room, and I remember screaming and crying at the same time, telling him that he shouldn’t have done that. He rationalized it in way that it made me think what had just happened was normal. Since then I have never heard such a terrifying, blood curdling scream come from so many people at once. That was the time that I had feared dying for the first time in my…

Remember the last time you were at a casino and you heard all that yelling at the craps table and wondered “what are they yelling about”, but you never ventured over there because you are too intimidated by craps. You’re not the only one. I used to watch from a distance trying to figure out what was going on, people were throwing chips everywhere yelling all sorts of crazy jargon (“press”, “same bet”, “hard 8”, “odds”) all while the dealers are moving chips all over the place paying people and taking other people’s money. What a crazy and intimidating game.…
